Mackenzie Trench Coat

Live Your Adventure®

Proof that style and performance are not mutually exclusive. Empire waist and princess seams give this trench its flattering shape. Lightweight polyester shell features our exclusive WeatherEdge® technology to make it windproof and waterproof/breathable to 5K/5K. StormRepel® durable water-repellent (DWR) finish beads water so it doesn't soak into the fabric.

Wore this coat in a very heavy downpour. It didn't stay waterproof. Good new is E. Bauer will give a refund after 3 years. Bad news is because I don't have a receipt, they will only give store credit. Also sleeves are too long.

Merchant response: Thank you for reviewing the Mackenzie Trench Coat. We are very sorry to hear that you were not completely satisfied with the purchase. Please be sure to take advantage of our 100% Satisfaction Guarantee by returning the coat for an exchange. If you need any assistance, please contact our Customer Care Center. We apologize for the inconvenience and frustration this has caused. A DWR will wash out after a number of washings and dry cleaning removes it immediately. A product such as Scotchgard™ or Teflon fabric sprays can replace it. Your dry clean can apply a commercial grade of DWR.

I bought this coat in Chicago on a rainy visit. It kept me dry and was very attractive. The fabric is much nicer than the picture shows. I bought the navy. It has a bit of a small black, almost small houndstooth look to it. Fit and comfort were great! I wore a softshell layer under it, on the cooler days, and was quite comfortable. The length was nice for walking around Chicago, and the zipper at the bottom was nice for sitting. Zip pockets were also nice for being in the city. I am sure I will be wearing this coat a lot!

This would have been a 5-star review if it was a perfect fit with room to spare for a medium weight shirt for chilly early spring or mid autumn weather in New Jersey. (For comparison I am between 8-10 Medium Regular, at 5 feet 5 inches tall). Great for days when you are wearing a thin t-shirt, but I was looking for a 3 season trench that I can wear to work and when walking in NYC or Philadelphia in cool weather. The other day I wore this over a medium weight shirt during 50-55 degree weather, it was too snug around the midriff for me :( A great pity because I really liked the look of this trench without the extra weight or without making me look as if I had 3 extra inches on my waist. Only consider this coat if you are slender or living in far milder climate than New Jersey.
